EtherCAT Test Center in China issues first certificate

Summary

September 20, 2013--The EtherCAT Test Center (ETC) in China issued its first official Chinese conformance certificate to Tsino Dynatron Electrical Technology.

The official hand over of the first Chinese conformance certificate recently took place in Shenzhen, one of five cities where this year’s EtherCAT Roadshow China stopped, and where representatives of Tsino -Dynatron, ETG and the EtherCAT Test Center were onsite.

Martin Rostan, Executive Director of the ETG, explained: “The growing demand for official tests shows that our Chinese ETG members not only implement EtherCAT into their devices, but also recognize the value of an official device certification.”

EtherCAT devices have been successful on the Chinese market for a long time and usage of the EtherCAT Conformance Test Tool by ETG members in-house is accordingly popular. However, voluntary official device test at the newly opened accredited test center in China will increasingly be frequented by Chinese companies in order to introduce their EtherCAT products to the market as “officially conformance tested.”
